Abstract

Structures and formation methods of a semiconductor device structure are provided. The method includes forming a dielectric layer over a semiconductor substrate and forming an opening in the dielectric layer to expose a conductive element. The method also includes forming a conductive layer over the conductive element and modifying an upper portion of the conductive layer using a plasma operation to form a modified region. The method further includes forming a conductive plug over the modified region.
